“Speaker announcement
Session: Reproduction I
Wednesday, 27.05.2026 | 11:00 – 12:30
We’re excited to introduce our next speaker, Whitney Harrington, who will share insights into how a maternal cells can help shape a child’s immune system from the very beginning of life.
Harringtons work explores how cells pass from mother to child during pregnancy (and possibly even through breastfeeding!) may support early immune development. Recent research suggests these travelling cells can boost vaccine responses and help protect against infections, highlighting microchimerism as a powerful yet often overlooked form of biological support passed between generations.
Join us to discover how these tiny cellular connections may play a big role in lifelong health!”
